Description Nate Graham 2025-10-29 19:24:01 UTC
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add an Analog Clock to the desktop
2. Right-click on it > Alternatives
3. Try to close it 


OBSERVED RESULT
It can't be closed by:
- Clicking on the desktop
- Clicking on the widget
- Pressing Escape


EXPECTED RESULT
All of those work


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
It can only be closed by clicking on the already-highlighted entry for the widget itself, which feels quite odd.
